Ch. 3. P. 50–59.

Stadnikov V., Belosludtseva Y.

The transition to market economy in the post-socialist countries marked the need for the formation of property rights, a legal real estate market and therefore zoning and land-use regulation system. Subsequently, the process of land subdivision has started, and continues up till the present moment. This paper is focused on the practises of land division in two types of territories in Russian cities – that of historic cores and Soviet large housing estates. In post-soviet economy the consequence of the privatization policy shows that it is focused on the premises by themselves, but not the buildings and plots. In this article we highlight the spectrum of problems connected to this phenomenon, focusing on those related to management, financing, and renewal of territories.
